G	Giacomo Resta on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Edificata intorno al 1630, ha una facciata molto semplice con un portale in pietra lunettato, su cui è posto lo stemma nobiliare del committente, il barone Borrassa. Sul cornicione della facciata si eleva un piccolo campanile a vela. All' interno, sull' unico altare, è posta una grande tela seicentesca che raffigura la Madonna del Soccorso secondo l' iconografia tradizionale nell' atto di scagliare un bastone sul maligno. Built around 1630, it has a very simple facade with a lunette stone portal, on which is placed the noble coat of arms of the client, Baron Borrassa. On the cornice of the facade rises a small bell gable. Inside, on the only altar, there is a large seventeenth-century canvas depicting the Madonna del Soccorso according to traditional iconography in the act of throwing a stick at the evil one.
G	Gernot Berndt on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Im historischen Zentrum von Locorotondo steht die kleine Kapelle Santa Maria del Soccorso auf dem gleichnamigen Platz, harmonisch eingefügt in die Verflechtung der weißen Gassen der antiken Stadt. Das Gebäude wurde indikativerweise zwischen 1627 und 1632 nach dem Willen des damaligen Barons Giovanni Giacomo Borrassa erbaut, der für den Bau die von einem gewissen Borgerio gespendeten Gelder verwendet hat, um eine ältere Kapelle, die heute in Trümmern liegt, in der Nähe der Kirche zu restaurieren Strom. Das Gebäude zeichnet sich durch den Kontrast des strahlend weißen Kalks aus, mit dem die Wände gestrichen sind, und dem warmen Braungrau des lokalen Steins, der für einige architektonische Details verwendet wird. Das Innere, mit einem einzigen Raum, hat einen Steinaltar, auf dem in einem Steinrahmen die Leinwand der Madonna del Soccorso aus dem 17. Jahrhundert steht, die nach traditioneller Ikonographie dargestellt ist.

Indicatively, the building was built between 1627 and 1632 at the will of the then Baron Giovanni Giacomo Borrassa, who used the funds donated by a certain Borgerio to build an older chapel, which is now in ruins, near the church restore electricity. The building is characterized by the contrast between the brilliant white lime that is painted on the walls and the warm brownish gray of the local stone used for some architectural details. The interior, with a single room, has a stone altar on which the canvas of the Madonna del Soccorso from the 17th century, represented according to traditional iconography, is placed in a stone frame.
